Abstract: In the context of modern processes of global integration and the comprehensive strengthening of China, the desire of world culture for integration also contributes to the development of global heterogeneity, localization and the rise of national culture. The Chinese civilization is currently the only ancient civilization that has not been interrupted in its development. Throughout the history of more than five thousand years in the course of its development, Chinese civilization has been able to form a unique cultural tradition that has become a spiritual source for the Chinese people. Since China's culture is an important part of the history of world civilization, its traditional culture can be represented in various forms through various cultural media, such as modern clothing. This article examines the reflection of Chinese traditional culture manifested in modern clothing both in China and abroad, analyzes, studies, compares and summarizes the differences in the language and methods of expression of Chinese traditional culture between the West and China. In addition, this article summarizes the methodological significance of heritage and innovation in the field of the manifestation of Chinese traditional culture in modern clothing, due to which modern Chinese clothing in the international fashion system is gradually moving from the concept of "alien" to the concept of "unique".

Abstract: Today we are witnessing a transition to new forms of work culture, in the context of the transition from an industrial economy to a digital one. Similar processes took place during the formation of the Soviet state. Then, the culture of work was undergoing its transformation from the conditions of the traditional economy to the conditions of the industrial world. Labor institutions created in the 1920s played a special role in these processes. The main purpose of the article is to analyze the process of forming a new work culture through the activities of the Tsitovites, which took place in the conditions of the cultural revolution in the USSR. The relevance of the topic is due to the historical aspect of the consideration of the described problem, not the economic one. The authors turn to the periodical press of the designated period, to archival documents, as well as to modern scientific research. As a result, the authors come to the conclusion that in the 1920s - 30s in the USSR, the processes of formation of labor culture and the cultural revolution went on in parallel and actively influenced each other. In our country, the principles of scientific organization of labor acquire the character of an important tool for speedy progress towards the restoration of the national economy after the devastation of the First World War and the Civil War. The activities of the Central Institute of Labor laid the foundation for a creative approach to labor relations, a special role in this belonged to the director of the CITA – A.K. Gastev.

Abstract: The subject of research in the article is the specificity of the reflection of historical events and persons in oral poetic works. The object of the study is the legend "About the Starling and the Woodpecker" and the song "On the Mountains on the Dyatlovs". The authors consider in detail such aspects of the topic as the artistic comprehension of the processes of development of statehood, the transformation of nationality, etc. Particular attention is paid to the consideration of contacts between neighboring peoples, influencing the formation of the historical context, in folklore works. The goals and objectives of the work determined the choice of research methods: historical and literary, descriptive, genetic, on the basis of which the analysis of the legend "About the Starling and the Woodpecker" and the song "On the Mountains on the Dyatlovs" is carried out. The scientific novelty of the study is determined for the first time by the analysis of "The Tale of the Starling and the Woodpecker" and the song "On the Mountains on the Dyatlovs" in the philosophical and sociological aspects in terms of the unification of Russians and Erzya into one people represented in them. The main conclusions were: the song and the legend unite the Russian and Erzya worlds, form a common society for them, where the co-existence of the two peoples does not have antagonism, social and moral forces directed against each other. A special contribution of the authors was the discovery that the song artistically interprets the unifying processes, idealizes them, turns them into a poetic image that is attractive to both Russians and Erzya. The unification of the Nizhny Novgorod Erzya with the Muscovite state was a mutual benefit, as the Russian Tsar also speaks of, thanking God for giving him the Erzya land. The Erzya elders also took what happened for granted, especially since it happened during their prayer to the Supreme God, who approved everything with his non-resistance.

Abstract: The article examines the photographic activity of foreign photographers during the late Qing Dynasty in China and analyzes their work in the context of historical material. The author explores the metaphor of the camera as it entered China and how the photographic activity of foreign photographers represented the colonial conquest of the Forbidden City.Since the Second Opium War in 1860, photography has served as a documentary tool, following the sounds of colonial invaders' guns as they sought to capture and control the Chinese capital. Forty years later, in 1900, during the Boxer Rebellion, the camera of a foreign photographer literally penetrated the Forbidden City, the former center of imperial power, revealing to the world the intricacies of the mysterious device and the turmoil of its capture by the allies.The use of photography in this context took on a dual aesthetic and political character, documenting the view of the Forbidden City while discrediting the attributes of imperial power. The author concludes that, in addition to its ability to document foreign landscapes, photography often acquired political significance during invasion. Thus, the author argues that photography's development in China during the late Qing period is inseparable from colonial and invasion activities and that photography constructed power relations while also showing the world a mysterious and declining China. The photography of the Forbidden City gives full expression to the conquest of the center of Chinese power.

Abstract: Russian Culture Day, celebrated in most of the countries of Russian emigration on the birthday of Alexander Pushkin, is the subject of the study. In the article, this celebration is considered not as a narrowly cultural event, but as a national holiday, that is, an event whose value is recognized by all members of the nation who, as spectators or participants, are involved in the celebrations. Special attention is paid to three key functions of the holiday: uniting, protecting young people from denationalization and maintaining a sense of collective dignity. Other functions are also considered, the most obvious of which are entertainment and educational, but these three influenced the formation of a special emigrant identity. It is demonstrated that despite the remaining differences, different political forces took part in the preparation and holding of the holiday. At the same time, the view of the historical significance of Russian culture and the role of Pushkin could differ, but the controversy remained within the framework of the holiday, which served as a platform for communication. Special attention is paid to the press and its influence on the formation and development of the Day of Russian Culture. The text notes that the Day of Russian Culture was a phenomenon of "white emigration", expressing its values and aspirations. This celebration existed and consolidated the "white" emigrant mythology, one of the key characteristics of which was the belief in a speedy return to their homeland, "liberated" from the Communists. The victory in the Second World War of the Soviet Union, led to the disappointment of emigrants in this idea. Also at the end of the 40s, the "second wave" got into emigration, which was very different in its abilities from its predecessors. These factors predetermined the fading and disappearance of such an important symbol of "white emigration" as the Day of Russian Culture.
